Masterplan Farnsworth Final Review

University of Illinois Chicago
4th Year Undergraduate Architecture

Students investigate the Edith Farnsworth House in the age of crisis. The question is: in the new epoch of Crisis, where things move slowly and out of sync with time and place, how does architecture approach Crisis, where does it find a site, what is context, once a problem is identified, how do you react? The Edith Farnsworth House presents a case where students can look at a piece of land, ecology and architecture which is intertwined with forces much larger than its site. These projects ask us to look out of their peripheral vision at the horizon of Crisis and address issues tangentially.
